    Good Points: None!


    Bad Points: Too many to list


    General comments: Awful, Awful Awful. Although I only paid £13.00 paid for this Babyliss Portability Ceramic Gas Straightener (they were reduced) I expected them to at least do what they said, 'straighten'.Don't get very hot at all and plates are so light that they don't 'grasp' your hair.Absolute waste of money, don't bother

    I agree that these straighteners do not heat up sufficiently to make any difference even to my wavy hair. This is instantly noticeable as I also have electric straighteners. I returned mine to Argos after 2 attempts.

    If you have fine hair I think Babyliss Portability Ceramic Gas Straightener will be fine for your hair type. However I have really thick/coarse hair that doesn't straighten easily. I found the plates aren't wide enough and I don't think get hot enough. If you have thick hair I would not recommend this because I need a straightener that reaches a higher temperature. I suggest between 210 degrees to 230 degrees.

    I paid £40 for these because I was desperate during a camping holiday with no electricity. I've got wavy hair and thought these would be the perfect answer. I waited at least 5 minutes for them to heat up and they didn't come close to straightening my hair! Also as other people have mentioned they ripped my hair when they reached the bottom! I was really disappointed with them and had to go back to wearing the hat! I felt as though I had wasted my money on them.

    I bought these for £19.99 at Argos and firstly they don't heat up anywhere near hot enough to straighten ever so slightly wavy hair even if you leave them to heat up for 5 minutes or more and secondly they get hair trapped and it ends up being pulled out - Nice! To sum up - Complete waste of time and money and I would not buy a Babyliss product again.

    For £19.99 I think these hair straighteners are great. After reading other reviews I wished I hadn't got them but they proved me wrong. If you leave them to heat up for about 5 minutes before using them, they get very hot! I don't think they would be very good for straightening a whole head of very curly hair, but they worked very well for me as I used them as a 'top-up' for the front frizzy parts of my hair. I used them a fair amount over 5 days, letting them heat up for about 5 -8 minut ...

    I thought these Babyliss Babyliss Portability ceramic gas straightener would be perfect for weekends away etc. But as the other reviews state, they don't heat up enough to straigthen your hair - and my hair isn't even that wavy. They also catch on the end of your hair, pulling and snapping - which can't be good! Wouldn't recommend.

    I saw the Babyliss Portability ceramic gas straighteners in the shop and thought they would be good. They were a bargain price and portable, but I was wrong. I tested them straight away. They take about 2 minutes to heat up properly. They rip your hair as you straighten it and in my experience the results are rubbish. They aren't hot enough to straighten your hair properly and the gas cells for them are quite expensive.

    Babyliss Portability ceramic gas straightener: Although it's really cheap, it's still not worth the money I paid for it. After straightening my hair one morning with my usual straighteners, my hair was poker straight. However, my hair had gone wavy by lunchtime so I used my new babyliss cordless straighteners. Instead of straightening my hair, they just kept getting caught in it and ripping strands out. That may have been painful but touching the ceramic plates wasn't. They were quite hot but no ...
